Its faster to type "the west" than "the developed world except france, bennelux, and nordics" everywhere else has obesity rates approaching or above 20%, which is a systemic catastrophe

Youre right about croatia and romania, they are not near 20%, because they are at 35% and 38% respectively.

Italy is 21%
